Adding New Line charachter

No problem! Glad I could help you ☺️

Hello, could you provide a bit more information? What is the example text you are trying to post, and what is the toot's and Mastodon instance URL? Also, what browser and OS are you on?

I have tried it right now, and for me, it still works fine 🤔

I am trying to use your service through a plugin written in Python.
I use the following string (example):
f"https://toot.kytta.dev/?text={title}{LF}{url}{LF}{hashtags}"
and - before this instruction - I defined
LF = '\n'

Tested also the method
import os
and then
f"https://toot.kytta.dev/?text={title}{os.linesep}{url}{os.linesep}{hashtags}"
without success

I think the problem is that your newline character is not URL encoded. For example, you can't put whitespaces in URLs, you have to replace them with %20. For a newline, that would be %0D%0A

I suggest you change your script a little bit as follows:

from urllib.parse import urlencode

query = urlencode({
    "text": f"{title}{LF}{url}{LF}{hashtags}"
})

url = f"https://toot.kytta.dev/?{query}"

Tested also the method
import os
and then
f"https://toot.kytta.dev/?text={title}{os.linesep}{url}{os.linesep}{hashtags}"
without success

And I wouldn't use os.linesep in this case. os.linesep is meant for files stored on different filesystems in different OSes: on Windows, it's CRLF, but on Unix-based OSes, it's LF. On the Web, however, it's the same everywhere, and you can just use \n

Works perfectly!
The problem was actually my poor Python knowledge.
Please apologize...
